This session considers the topic of what progress is being made in the business world towards the aim of neuroinclusive workplaces. Join Dan Harris (Chair of the charity Neurodiversity in Business) and a panel of leading businesses and ND advocates to debate on the progress being made in the corporate world.
Backed by the latest academic research, the panel will be discussing the best ways to implement 'Neurodiversity at Work' programmes, reduce stigma, improve retention and implement effective workplace adjustments.
This panel firmly believes that creating a neuroinclusive environment benefits businesses and that the corporate world is currently leading society. We look forward to discussing and debating this topic, and learning from leaders across the corporate world.
